I'll just say this, making PostScript background colors
other than white is a HELL of lot harder to program
than I ever imagined!!

Getting a background color and then allowing !P.MULTI
plots is a big, big chore. :-(

Anyway, here are new routines that appear to do this correctly.

P.S. Let's just say the first person who mentions
the word "hack" will be dealing with Coyote and his
gang.
